TECH'advantage has been working with scientific software geared primarily towards the geosciences for more than two decades. Frequently, we found the available software for scientific documentation inadequate. So we built our own.

Our original in-house documentation software was based on DITA. Couple with the recognized competence of our experienced technical writers, its implementation proved to be more than satisfactory.

In 2015, we decided to develop a commercial version of this product: ddc (easyDocContents). With the commercial release, we incorporated the ability to work in collaborative, agile teams to create contextualized help and user onboarding for software. Our philosophy is that content and software are both part of the product, and as such, content designers and software developers should work together.

Because our products are created for people, we also believe users should have a say in the final product.

And that's what edc does: it allows developers, writers, SMEs, support, and users to all be contributors to the final product. The edc environment encourages collaboration, and provides the interface to do so easily.

With users at the center of our product strategy, we believe help should be contextualized, provide only what's needed, and delivered real-time only when it's needed.
